Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Way back when
In the beginning of time
Man made the fire, then the wheel
Went from a horse to an automobile
[Verse 2]
He said, "The world is mine"
He took the oceans and the sky
He set the borders, built the walls
He won't stop till he owns it all
[Verse 3]
And here we are
Standing on the brink of disaster
Enough is enough is enough is enough
I know the answer
[Verse 4]
Put a woman in charge (Put a woman in charge, put a woman in charge)
Put the women in charge (Put the women in charge, put the women in charge)
Put a woman in charge (Put a woman in charge, put a woman in charge)
Put the women in charge (Put the women in charge, put the women in charge)
[Verse 5]
The time has come
We've got to turn this world around (World around)
Call the mothers
Call the daughters (Call the daughters)
We need the sisters of mercy now
[Verse 6]
She'll be a hero, not a fool
She's got the power to change the rules
She's got something that men don't have (Something, yes, she has)
She is kind and she understands
[Verse 7]
So let the ladies
Do what they were born to do
Raise the vibration
And make a better place for me and you
[Verse 8]
So put a woman in charge (Put a woman in charge, put a woman in charge)
Put the women in charge (Put the women in charge, put the women in charge)
Put a woman in charge (Put a woman in charge, put a woman in charge)
Put the women in charge (Put the women in charge, put the women in charge)
[Verse 9]
Hallelujah (Hallelujah, hallelujah)
We're gonna feel the magic
When the girls take over (Take over)
It's gonna be fantastic (Fantastic)
(We need more women in charge)
[Verse 10]
Put a woman in charge (Put a woman in charge)
Put the women in charge (Put the women in charge)
Put a woman in charge
Put the women in charge (Put the women in charge)
[Verse 11]
Put a woman in charge (Put a woman in charge) (Charge)
Put the women in charge (Put the women in charge, put the women in charge)
Time to put a woman in charge (Put a woman in charge, put a woman in charge)
Put the women in charge (Put the women in charge, put the women in charge)
That's right, come on, yeah
[Verse 12]
Put a woman in charge (Put a woman in charge, put a woman in charge)
Put the women in charge (Put the women in charge, put the women in charge)
It's about time we put a woman in charge (It's about time)
(Put a woman in charge, put a woman in charge, yeah)
Come on, y'all, let's put the women in charge
(Put the women in charge, put the women in charge)
[Verse 13]
Put a woman in charge (Put a woman in charge, put a woman in charge)
Put the women in charge (Put the women in charge, put the women in charge)
(How 'bout somebody put a woman in charge?)
Put a woman in charge (Put a woman in charge, put a woman in charge)
Put the women in charge (Put the women in charge)
Yeah, yeah, put a woman in charge
